Hosted by longtime pastor and ministry leader Mike Glenn, each episode features honest, thoughtful conversations with pastors, theologians, civic leaders, entrepreneurs, and cultural voices who are wrestling with the real challenges facing today’s church.From navigating politics and social media to addressing burnout, leadership transitions, discipleship, church planting, legal issues, recovery, AI, and community engagement, this podcast moves beyond theory into practical wisdom. With a strong focus on Middle Tennessee and a heart for the next generation of leaders, Mike draws on decades of experience to help pastors prepare for ministry rather than simply repair from it.Whether you’re leading a congregation, serving on staff, or simply passionate about the future of the Church, Engage Church Network offers grounded insight, courageous conversations, and actionable guidance to help you lead with clarity, humility, and faithfulness in your calling.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍

Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
